When Jarod and his clone are presumed dead and further cloning attempts prove futile, Raines is determined to find another way. He finds it in Dry River, Arizona.
A happy ending from Mirage??! I'm astonished! Pleasantly so. I was expecting more sex in this chapter but what you've done is so special and hits hard in the pretender feels. I don't miss the smut that could have been. I love that the OG original gang has found each other and they are so happy.
You've outdone yourself again !
Congratulations!
Jarod is implicated in a spate of homicides.
Impressive as always Mirage!
Evocative and provocative. You've always been an outisde of the box author and you've really developed these characters and you have definitely defined your voice as an author.
I can't believe you aren't writing the novels! I've said it before. Someone has to say it!
Thanks for staying with the writing. I value your work and your powerful voice. I'll miss this universe. Every word is well placed from the first word. I'm grateful that I can come back and read, and that you are writing several other universes that I can immerse myself in.
Congratulations!

Amazing writing.
I hope you'll update them all again soon.
Reviewer: twisted Signed _
Wow. Mirage! This is amazing.
You SHOULD be writing the novels. I wish you write for a Pretender television show or movie with the original cast!
I can't say it enough!
Reviewer: twisted Signed UHH UHhhm. I'm still loving this.
My only complaint is that I need more right now!
Please!
Reviewer: twisted Signed
Wild Horses prequel.
Uhhhh huh so dark and creamy like Lyle. Would have loved to read a whole series on this!
Reviewer: twisted Signed No one is more wicked than Miss Parker. (Except Jarod)
Ugh this is so dark and I like dark. Jarod doesn't even need a shove to go completely dark. He's dark during the series. Give a kid explosive diarrhoea just cos he's a bully was really fucked up. There were other ways to humiliate and it should have been a kids-only group effort.
You could have shown the repeated rapes that Jarod commits. It happens. People get so precious over something that is done to people every day. They need to see it and know to never do it.
Reviewer: twisted Signed-
Woo hoo! This is how it's done. You blow me away again and again.
Reviewer: twisted Signed YOU should be writing the "official" novels!! I won't ever stop saying it.
LONG LIVE THE CENTRE
LONG LIVE THE PRETENDER
LONG LIVE MIRAGE
More!
Reviewer: twisted Signed Finished business.
I was hoping for an update from you. A new story is a pleasant surprise Mirage. I love your stories and I love that I recognize the characters! You do right by the series and keep it alive for me. What else is lurking in the Mirarchives? I want it all! More more! Please.
Reviewer: twisted Signed A last resort
YOU should be writing the official novels!! I'm always impressed by you.
I'm happy not writing the novels. It's all good. Thanks, twisted.
Reviewer: twisted Signed You're on the few authors I keep coming back to, one of the few talented, and stories like this are why. Will there be romance in this eventually? Either way, I want more.
Ooh, I don't know about romance. Mm. We shall see.
Thanks for the r&r, twisted.
Reviewer: twisted Signed You better not keep me waiting long. I love the pace of the writing and the updates. 3 chapters all reading and waiting for me makes it feel like my birthday! You should be writing the novels. I'll never stop saying it.
Well, now I have to keep you waiting. Haha.
You should really stop saying that thing you say you'll never stop saying. I'm exactly where I want to be in my life, and I'm happy, and I enjoy full creative control. These are things to consider. I don't even use my real name. I could be a sociopath (no, really, I think I'd be great at it). Anyway, thanks for the r&r.
Reviewer: twisted Signed This scribblet follows Asphyxia.
WOW!
YOU should be writing the official novels! YOU should be working with television. You should be working in television for real. You've never disappointed me and I will be shocked if you ever do. What can I do to encourage you to write faster?
Reviewer: twisted Signed This scriblet follows Incursion.
Uhhuhhh! Impressive as hell Mirage... as you always are. You broke from the pack right out of the writing womb and ran in your own direction and I LOVE your direction.
Parker is exactly Parker, Jarod is exactly Jarod, Broots is exactly Broots. Lyle is his same awful and gorgeous self too.
I've said it and said it, and I will say it again. YOU should be writing The Pretender novels. Uhhhh! Don't get mad at me for saying the truth!!
Congratulations! GIVE ME MORE!
There will be more. Thanks.
Reviewer: twisted Signed _
Woo hoo! Mirage. A new Mirage story is unexpected and always welcome! Is this going to be a too good be to be true Jarod? He's in white and in light! Uhhh. Will there be romance? I have so many questions. Please answer them all in the story. I can't wait. I can't wiait. I've said it before and I'll say it again. You should be writing the script for The Pretender. For real for real!
Reviewer: twisted Signed Devastating! 💔 💔
You write so vividly that I feel their pain. Ugghhhh uh huh! They must avenge now and heal. I can't wait for more.
Reviewer: twisted Signed This scribbling follows Wild Horses, and concludes the not-yet-titled series.
Uhhha gotdamn! I'm never gonna stop saying that you should be writing the novels... You know what? You ARE writing what I consider the OFFICIAL novels!
Please never stop.
Reviewer: twisted Signed Start to finish I love this.
Woot!
Have a wonderful New Year! 🎊

(FON sequel)
Uhh huh, yes, yes, yes. Yes please to this and I need more and I need it now.
I've been wanting a FON sequel since you posted FON 17 fracking years ago Mirage!
What's weird is that FON seemed so implausible back then, but since then: Cosby doped tea. Fracking "sweet soft spoken" Gaiman's behavior and actions, written about in an article that just was published this past Monday, is so much like Jarod's behavior in FON that I got chills. I read the article I instantly thought of FON.
Sista, you were ahead of your time with FON. I think you had to wait and let some truths be told and let the world find out what was lurking behind closed doors.
It does feel appropriate that you're doing the sequel now. Because NOW the world finally knows the truth. This is why we choose the bear.
This is why we "wait sooooo long to tell."
This is why we sometimes never tell.
Sometimes we don't say because we're too afraid to say no. You show all of that. It must have been frustrating when readers didn't immediately didn't think of it as rape. People are still like that about wives who are raped by husbands, as if marriage means the husband can violate his wife's body because they'e married.
And for Parker to have fallen in love with Jarod (a rapist) it's so much harder, especially when she has all that guilt from the times she hurt him.
That doesn't justify what he did to her. It makes her feel more obligated. Plus she loves him. It's so complicated. It happens, too. The story of FON happens every day and people don't know it.
Circles of Hell too. It's a true story for someone.
These are important stories. I'm grateful that you wrote them.
I'm grateful for this sequel. Woohoo. More please!
hope you don't mind that i called you sista.
